About David & Karen



David & I met on Halloween night of 2008. We met on Match.com. Our first date was on November 1st at Riverview Restaurant & Lounge in Moosup, Connecticut. The most memorable thing about our first date was how it was so comfortable and natural to be in each other’s company… our first kisses, and oh… how David’s teenage son called him around 11:00 p.m. and yelled at him for not being home from his dinner date by then!

Anyway, one of the things I was attracted to in Dave’s profile on Match.com was that he was into cycling. I lived near a bicycle path at one time in my life, and I rode on it almost daily for exercise. I loved it. But I was still a casual rider. I had never been on a bicycle that hadn’t come from a department store or a yard sale. I had never worn spandex. I used to watch the riders in spandex wiz by me when I lived in Rhode Island. I envied them, but I never, ever thought I could imagine myself as being “one of them”!

Lovin' life Together!

 Well, now I am “one of them”, and I believe it is one of the most positive life changes I have made. The other — of course — was becoming David’s wife! Without him, it’s probable that I’d still be riding on the  bike path only – on my Walmart bicycle.
